Omaha, Neb., March 26. The re adjusted schedule only makes Omaha rates the same as those of competing markets, A. F. Stryker, secretary of the Omaha Livestock exchange, testi fitd today at a hearing before J. C. Brooke of Washington, examiner of the packers and stockyards admin istration of the department of agri culture, to consider the new read justed schedule of commission rates here. "Spread over the entire receipts at the yards," Stryker said, "the re vised schedule means no increase in commission rates on sheep and only a light increase on cattle and hogs, equal ot about 35 cents on an average car in a year." In answer to the question wheth er commission men will be required to pay increased rental for office siiaoo in the new exchange builcnne. W. It.

Robert Graham, president of the Nebraska stockgrowers' association, declared stockmen in the state made a little money last year, but had been losing money ror some time up to 1925. He said he did not like to see an increase in commission rates but would interpose no serious ob jections. Fewer commission men would imporve the character of the service, he believed. Ninety-five per cent of the men engaged in the range cattle indus try in the state are now In debt, said S. P.

S. Was Revoked. Washington, March 26. Bit by bit tho senate immigration committee to day drew from William Hanson, im migration director at San Antonio, the story of how he surrendered Gen eral Manuel Torres, rebel leader, to Mexican authorities to be shot, in spite of the fact that the general, fleeing from the wrath of the Calles government had been granted 60 ' ways Dy ine department oi; laDor nere. to maKe gooa nis escape to uanaaa or Cuba. Friends of General Torres have charged that he was deported in the face of warnings that he would certainly be killed in accord with an agreement between the immigra- j tion and, Prohibition enforcement j lini,ts an,d. the Mexican government. j in return for President Calles' slg- nature on a border I UIIl-l uuuiug treaty. Order Without Notice. Under questioning, by Senator King today, Mr. Hanson, as well as Assistant Secretary of Labor W. W. Husband, admitted that the order permitting Torres his freedom for GO days on his own recognizance was revoked without notice to his counsel, H. G. Hopkins of Washington, and that the release was then condition ed on his ability to produce a thousand-dollar bond. Senator King as serted Torres had been sent to his "certain death." When It appeared that Torres 'would be unable to give such a bond I a deportation order was issued and the general surrendered to a Mex- Mexico. Denies Property Returned. Hanson contended that he was justified in turning Torres over in view of assurances from President Calles and the secretary of state of Mexico that the general would not be tried as a Tebel, but as a bandit, Senator King attempted to compel him to admit that through his years of experience in Mexico and on the torn in juexico to try an iiomivoi prisoners and rebels as bandits and inflict the death penalty. Hanson heatedly denied that his property in Mexico had been return ed to him since the surrender .of Torres, and asserted that it is still held by the Mexican government.
